Emerging Standards for Enhanced Publications and Repository Technology
by Marjan Vernooy-Gerritsen
Published 15 October 2009
Emerging Standards for Enhanced Publications and Repository Technology serves as a technology watch on the rapidly evolving world of digital publication. It provides an up-to-date overview of technical issues, underlying the development of universally accessible publications, their elemental components and linked information. More specifically it deals with questions as how to bring together the communities of the Current Research Information Systems (CRIS) and the Common European Research Information Format (CERIF).
Case studies like EGEE, DILIGENT and DRIVER are analyzed, as well as implementations in projects in Ireland, Denmark and The Netherlands. Interoperability is the keyword in this context and this book introduces to new standards and concepts used in the design of envelopes and packages, overlays and feeds, embedding, publishing formats and Web services and service-oriented architecture. It is a must-read for quick and comprehensive orientation.

The traditional publication will be overhauled by the 'Enhanced Publication'. This is a publication that is
enhanced with research data, extra materials, post publication data, and database records. It has an
object-based structure with explicit links between the objects. In this book a state-of-the-art overview is given
of the structural elements of an Enhanced Publication, as well as publication models, interrelationship and
repository issues. The use of Enhanced Publications evokes questions on object models and functionalities.
In-depth study is made of these subjects. More practically, a sample is given of datasets together with
a demonstrator-project. In the final section, this book deals with long-term preservation issues, linking to the
developments of digital repositories that are studied in other books in this series.
